Objective:To observe the expression of PCNA and morphological changes of submandibular gland of db/db mutant diabetic mice. Methods:Fifty C57BL/Ksj-db/+m mice were randomly divided into 2 groups, db/db diabetic group and control group. The morphological changes of submandibular gland and the expression of PCNA were observed by using light microscope (LM) and immunohistochemistry. Results:Submandibular gland atrophy and the significant morphological changes in acini and ducts were observed in db/db diabetic mice. PCNA was expressed in submandibular gland in both diabetic mice and control mice.The percentage of PCNA positive cells was significantly decreased in diabetic mice than that in control(P

Objective To introduce a method using hydroxyapatite methylmethacylate cement implanted in the femoral head for the treatment of patients suffering from avascular necrosis of the femoral head due to different causes and to review the medium term follow up results. Methods From January 1990 to December 1995, eight hips in seven patients(male 4, female 3) with femoral head necrosis at Ficat stage Ⅲ were treated with the hydroxyapatite methylmethacylate cement implantation in the involved femoral head. Four osteonecrosis were secondary to femoral neck fracture, two were due to corticosteroid intake and one had alcohol abuse history. All patients complained pain and limited joint activity. The operation consisted of the removal of necrotic bone under weight loading cartilage with curet and the implantation of the hydroxyapatite methylmethacylate cement. The function of hip joint were well evaluated and X ray films were taken pre and postoperatively. The average postoperative follow up was 7.9 years, ranging from 5.1 to 11 years. Results Merle d Aubign? method was used to assess and compare the pre and post operative function of hip joint. The average score for unilateral cases increased from 8.66 to 15.5 at final examination. On radiography, the improvement of the contours of the femoral head was seen in all patients and most of them could preserve their initial postoperative contours during the follow up. No sign of expansion of the bone necrosis appeared in most of the patients, although certain patients presented various joint degeneration such as narrowing of joint space,sclerosis and osteophyte. Subjective evaluation was satisfactory except two suffering from painless limited activity of hip joint. Conclusion This method is relatively simple with less invasion and rapid postoperative recovery. It may be a choice of surgery for the treatment of certain femoral head necrosis at Ficat stage Ⅲ, especially for young patients.

Objective:To establish a method for the determination of related substances in enoxacin gluconate injection by HPLC with gradient elution. Methods:HPLC was performed on a DiamonsilTM C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm), the mobile phase A was 0. 025 mol·L-1 phosphonic acid solution (adjusting pH to 3. 0 with triethylamine)-methanol- acetonitrile (80∶10∶10) and the phase B was 0. 025 mol·L-1 phosphonic acid solution (adjusting pH to 3. 0 with triethylamine)-methanol-acetonitrile (350∶325∶325) with gradient elution at a flow rate of 1. 1 ml·min-1 , the detection wavelength was 269 nm and 284 nm, the injection volume was 20μl, and the column temperature was 40℃. Results:Under the HPLC conditions, the samples had good stability and separation. The calibration curve was linear within the concentration range of 19. 80 ng·ml-1-19. 80 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 9) for 5-hydroxymethylfur-fural with the detection limit of 0. 18ng, and the average recovery was 99. 68% with RSD of 0. 12% (n=9). Conclusion:The method is accurate, sensitive, specific and reproducible, and can be used in the determination of related substances in enoxacin gluconate in-jection.

Objective:To investigate the breakthrough point and working method of anti-infective clinical pharmacists for involving the clinical therapy. Methods:Through the specific cases, the effect of clinical pharmacists in ward round and consultation was intro-duced and analyzed. Results:Through communication and learning, clinical pharmacists could play an important role in such areas as indications, multi-resistant bacterium and adverse reactions, especially in adverse reactions and individualized dosage regimen. Con-clusion:To a certain extent, clinical pharmacists are helpful to rational application of antibiotics in clinics through ward round, case discussion and consultation.

Objective To study the prevalence of symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) in rural areas of Shanxi,China.Methods All the residents above 16 years old from the villages chosen by multi-stage stratified cluster sampling in Yangcheng County and Pianguan County in Shanxi Province were investigated with COPCORD procedure of WHO.All the respondents signed the informed consent forms.All statistical analysis were carried out using SAS 9.2 and SPSS standard version 13.0.Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.P value ＜0.05 was regarded as statistically significant.Results The investigation in these two counties covered 7 126 residents,including 1 734 symptomatic OA patients,with a prevalence rate of 24.3％,where knee OA had the highest prevalence rate [13.8％(983/7 126)],other figures were as follows:lumbar vertebra,neck,hand,shoulder,elbow,ankle,hip,wrist,thoracic vertebra and foot.There were statistical differences in the prevalence of knee,ankle,neck,shoulder and hand between the two genders (P＜0.05).Conclusion The prevalence of symptomatic OA in rural areas of Shanxi,China is relatively high,but the risk factors still need to be further studied and proved.

Objective To explore the diagnosis value of CT in subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) induced by aneurysm rupture.Methods The clinical and CT data of 119 patients with SAH induced by aneurysm rupture were analyzed respectively.Results The CT characteristic of SAH induced by aneurysm rupture was full of hyperderse in sulcus and schizenceplay,or accompaning intracerebral hematoma in the straight gyrus of frontal lobe and the hippocampal gyrus of parietal lobe.Conclusion The CT has important value for diagnosing SAH induced by aneurysm rupture in the location and the nature.But it is indispensable that the CTA or DSA must be done for ascertaining the artery of responsibility of rupturing aneurysm.

Objective To detect Porphyromonas gingivalis and clinical index in subgingival specimens after removal of orthodontic appliances and to evaluate clinical index and P.gingivalis factors associated with orthodontic appliances during an episode of gingival inflammation and the impact of appliance removal on periodontal health.Methods Choose 20 patients prepare to removal of orthodontic appliances.Plaque index(PLI),sulcus bleeding index(SBI) and probing depth(PD) of observed teeth were examined and subgingival plaques were collected at prior to appliance removal(baseline) and 1,3 and 6 months after appliance removal.The numbers of P.gingivalis,total bacteria,the proportion of P.gingivalis and the prevalence of P.gingivalis in the samples were detected with the TaqMan real-time PCR.Results The prevalence of P.gingivalis decreased from baseline to the 6th month after fixed appliance removal in two groups,and significant change was found in 6th month(P ＜ 0.05); The numbers of P.gingivalis significantly reduced from baseline to the 6th month(P ＜ 0.05); The proportion of P.gingivalis in subgingival plaque decreased from baseline to the 6th month(P ＜0.05).PLI,SBI and PD significantly decreased from baseline to the 6th month after fixed appliance removal.Conclusion After fixed appliance removal,most of patients can recover periodontal tissue health in good oral hygiene.The percentage of P.gingivalis are closely associated with periodontal status.TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction has a high sensitivity and specificity.It was demonstrated the broad potential of application on detection of oral microbes.

In 1989, Fitz defined and classified severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and he thought that surgical treatment of SAP is feasible. Since then, the strategy of treating SAP was a controversial issue over past decades. Currently, relevant literatures reported that medical or minimally invasive treatments are superior to surgical treatment, while it is too early to make the final conclusion because of the complexity of SAP. From 1989 to 2008, 1852 patients with acute pancreatitis were treated at the General Hospital of PLA, and the clinical data of 18 patients who died of SAP were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the analysis, we concluded that medical conservative therapy and surgical operative therapy should not be opposed to each other. Selecting ideal timing and appropriate operation on the basis of pathological changes of retroperitoneum and pancreatitis should be considered seriously, and the new concept of "miniaturization of trauma" should also be introduced in treating SAP.
